Where Nomad is better
Nomad has the lower displayed 50 GB price for 30 days on the date checked. That can be decisive for high data usage.
The 20 GB plan explicitly permits hotspot use and top-ups. That specific plan names AT&T and Verizon; the broader network list on the overview should not be assumed to apply to every package.
Where HolySim is better
HolySim costs less at 5, 10 and 20 GB. If 20 GB is enough, you do not need to spend more for the same named US network partners.
You can get email support in Dutch. Our selected fixed plans start at first connection, while Nomad can also start automatically 60 days after purchase.
